Zusammenfassung:	Here the inventors provide a composition for topical application to the skin of animal comprising stearidonic acid in combination with one or more octadecatrienoic acids (CODTAs). Preferably the composition comprises echium oil as a source of the stearidonic acid, and a plant lipid as a source of octadcatrienoic acid, such as borage (Borago officinalis), wheat germ oil (Triticum vulgare), rosehip oil (refined; Rosa mosqueta), jacaranda oil (Jacandra mimosa folia), and/or calendula oil (Calendula officinalis). The composition of the invention increases collagen I secretion and thus has particular utility for promoting collagen production in skin.
